A bill for healthcare? Foreign concept in Europe.
- vladvasiliu 1mo agoDon't know about "Europe", but in France they're looking into setting up something similar for no-shows. Not sure where the law's at, but it's being considered at least.
- KPGv2 1mo agoHm? They have the Ausfallhonorar in Germany for if you miss a scheduled appointment. It's not a bill for healthcare. It's a punishment for wasting resources. Like at buffets where they charge you for uneaten food on your plate when you leave. HCPs in socialized medicine often still get reimbursed based on activity, so a missed appointment means they miss out on reimbursement. Makes sense you ought to owe them for costing them money.
